Do you support the construction of a high speed railway (HS2) connecting London to Birmingham?

I think it's only right to enable the Midlands and the north to boost their local economy. However, I also see that it is interfering with the landscape and cau…

Should tenants receive less benefits if they live in a housing association or council property with more bedrooms than occupants?

Only if they're not using the rooms, at all. Some people have a lot of things that need space and it's unfair to assume they should either have barely anything…

Should welfare recipients be tested for drugs?

No because nobody takes drugs for no reason. Right or wrong - people end up on drugs to cope with one thing or another and get addicted, which isn't in their co…

Should the top tax rate of income over £150,000 be raised to 50 percent?

Maybe not 50% for that much. Maybe 30-35% is more fair. It's multi-millionaires and billionaires that are the problem.

Do you support the legalisation of Marijuana?

Yes and regulate it, like tobacco and alcohol. Also, release people in prison for possession and use of it. Only dealers should be imprisoned.

Do you support the use of Antisocial Behaviour Orders (ASBOs)?

Yes but I think we need youth centres back and to actually put time and money into listening to young people, supporting them and channeling their energy into d…

Should the government regulate social media sites, as a means to prevent fake news and misinformation?

There should be official fact checking services to do this for the social media companies. The Government are too likely to manipulate.

Should the House of Lords be abolished?

No but I don't like the idea of any form of hierarchy, really. I believe society should be able to regularly have more decision making powers (e.g. voting on th…

Should non-violent prisoners be released from jail in order to reduce overcrowding?

Yes but provide them with a focus and a path to follow, rather than just letting them out and abandoning them.

@9FVKSV6 answered…1yr1Y

Should funding for local police departments be redirected to social and community based programs?

Yes but, also, we need to work on ending corruption from within the police and they need more funding, too. We would also have less criminals if there was local…

Should the UK deport immigrants who are considered to be promoting terrorism?

Yes but it depends what the Government consider terrorism. Current Government want to treat anyone who criticises them, as well as the UK, as if they're domesti…

Should the number of countries in the European Union be reduced to 15?

Yes and no. This is hard. I don't like any block trying to compete to be the wealthiest and best - it's a toxic game. At the same time, it can be good for count…

Should the European Commission be dismantled?

No but there are some bizarre pieces of legislation, at times, that seem unnecessary, that could be revised.

@9FVKSV6 answered…1yr1Y

Should the government increase or decrease foreign aid spending?

I think tax payers should be able to choose if their taxes go toward it. I also believe that it depends on how the country treats its citizens, overall. If huma…

@9FVKSV6 answered…1yr1Y

Should the UK renew its Trident nuclear weapons programme?

No but the UK should not make it a priority and should encourage other countries to lower their focus on it. Particularly, over time.

@9FVKSV6 answered…1yr1Y

Should all state schools be required to follow a standard curriculum?

I believe school should teach only what's necessary, as a default, as well as life skills and about all different kinds of people and things in existence, so th…

@9FVKSV6 answered…1yr1Y

Should universities be held financially accountable if graduates, with degrees leading to lower income jobs, default on their student loans?

Yes but I also think university should be free, so that everyone has equal opportunities and people, from all classes, get to have involvement in something bigg…

@9FVKSV6 answered…1yr1Y

Should the government decriminalize school truancy?

Yes but, also, more should go into helping these kids and finding out the problem. Often, truant children are found to be neurodivergent and they're actually st…

Should the UK abolish the Human Rights Act?

Yes, replace it with a bill of rights that gives the UK more legislative control

There's a reason the original exists and without it, many everyday protections would also be removed - simply, so that the Government can be more dictatorial, t…
